2009-01-28T13:39:00.005+08:00

Hello Guys...

I'm off to Perth for a holiday...

will update when i'm back...

It's driving me crazy...

2009-01-16T04:25:00.007+08:00

I must be crazy to be blogging at the wee hours in the morning, the truth is...I can't get to sleep, there's so much things happening lately. First of all I'm still finding work, been going to job interviews almost every weekdays and still no calls from them...no matter how long it takes, I'm not going to give up. There's certain days i have to help my cousin Lisany at her boutique shop as there's shortage of manpower, and getting a new place to rent either at Vivo, Suntec or elsewhere. Lastly helping my mum to do the household chores at home. Sometimes it can drive me mad doing all this stuffs.

I hope the holiday trip to Perth will help me relieve my mind free from troubles and stress, will be leaving on the 28th January, evening flight. My aunt sponsor the trip for the both of us to go there and see my cousin. Duration of the holiday will be one week or more, depends whether i want stay longer or be back to my homeland..hahaha, that's all for now..will update soon.

The Start of 2009

2009-01-10T01:51:00.009+08:00

it's great to be back blogging, after an absence for a long period...haha, a Brand New Year..eventually i got a lot of things to settle with my ORD stuffs, festive season with family, relatives, cousins, nephew and nieces.

I'm now slacking alot and been going to job interviews, it's hard to get a job nowadays, but no matter what, i will still find..as for now, i will end my updates..that's all folks!!

2008-11-09T22:08:00.006+08:00

sorry for not updating, i have been very busy the last couple of weeks, with so many events going on, there's no time for me to blog, i will posting some news if there's any latest happenings.

For now, i just want to look forward to my ORD, that's all for now.

2008-10-01T22:05:00.003+08:00

Just a few updates, the weekend was filled with lots of activities at the Marina Bay for Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix, eventually i was not able to get the tickets, but just two days before the event, my mum surprised me with those F1 passes, as her company Credit Suisse she is working for is a corporate sponsor, i was overwhelmed that i've got the chance to catch the action, the 3 passes was for myself, lisany and emily, overall it was historic moment and the best ever F1 race in the 2008 season.

That's all for now!!

2008-09-21T20:02:00.002+08:00

Been sick the last fews day with bad flu, i still had to work to do in camp despite seeing the doctor. The weekend was much better as i went out to destress myself, went out with cousin and uncle to get a laptop at Sim Lim Square, hanging out with friends for break fast, window shopping and relaxing for the night, I do not wish to update further...that's all for now.

2008-09-14T19:44:00.002+08:00

Another weekend gone in a flash, been going out the last few days with my cousins and friends, i need to keep in touch with them, i feel that the gap has widen, it's a fact that i'm busy in camp almost everyday, I've to hang in there for another 3 months before i can see freedom for myself again.

As usual friday evenings is always the best...my cousin, emily and ben came over to my place to have dinner, usually my home is empty since my parents are busy working and my younger bro is always at my aunt's place for the weekends, had alot of fun playing board games and Playstation to kill time. Later that night i met nazri to lepak at Mac to chill and have supper at the same time till late.

Woke up bright and early on saturday morning to have home made breakfast at home, watch tv, repair my cousin's laptop and went online to do some research work and stuffs. Later that afternoon, I went out with my cousin to window shop at marina square, hang around and went to Marquee, home of ManUtdSG to catch the game live against Liverpool, sadly it was not our day and Man United were defeated, soon after we went to orchard and met my friend to have my late dinner and relax at Starbucks for drinks till late.

Sundays are my rest day, since it was boring...I decided to watch Die Hard Movie Marathon which i rented from my friend and spend the whole morning till afternoon watching it. That's all for now.

2008-09-07T20:36:00.002+08:00

Another 3 months and 9 days to mark the end for my NS, at last my understudy came and now i can slowly handover my job to him. The weekend has been quite hectic despite my busy schedule. Friday evening after booking out from camp, i went to get some foodstuffs since my cousin will be heading to my place for dinner, meal for the night was spaghetti, eventually later around 11pm i met nazri to go for a spin and chill at lower seletar reservoir, at the same time we get to see all the flashy sports cars in that area. Soon after we went to Sun Plaza Mac for supper and hangout till we went back home.

There was nothing much to do on a Saturday morning, i had breakfast, watch tv and went online to pass time, in the afternoon i left home to see my friend for awhile before heading to Junyuan's House for mentors' appreciation and prayers. later that evening i met nazri and safiah for dinner at Capitol LJS, it was just a short meeting since others can't make it, since safiah wanted to go home, myself and nazri went to marina square to chill at McCafe till late. That's all for now...

2008-08-31T17:37:00.005+08:00

A few updates for the weekend, friday afternoon were spent at Paya Lebar Airbase for the preview of RSAF Open House, it was great to see the aerial stunts and showcase of the fighter jets and other interesting booths related to the Air Force, event ended at 4pm and dimiss from there. Met eqin, safiah and bainah at SingPost coffeebean outlet to hangout for awhile and went home to rest since i'm dead tired.

Saturday morning was my unit's family day, i brought my younger brother to my camp to view the work life and type of tranings we have. The tour was a short one and we made our way home. That evening i met adilah just to hang around since many of my friends can't make it, eventually we ended up at Plaza Singapura Starbucks and chatted many topics till mariah came to join us after her work ended, realising it was going to be close to 10pm, we decided to head home, upon reaching back home..since there was nothing to do, i went down to borrow dvds and bought mac for supper and slept quite late.

Today was my rest day, initially I was supposed to meet nazri, but there was a last minute plan, my relatives came to my home for a visit so no choice that I've to cancel my plan with to go with him to suntec for the Comex Exhibition, that's the end for the updates.

2008-08-25T19:29:00.003+08:00

I don't have the mood to update my blog, but something have just given me the urge to type and post it. The last one week in camp was hell for me, but i decided to forget it and move on, no point harping over this issue. The weekend was one to remember even though i was a little sick. I got to spent time at the NDP Appreciation Tea and Fireworks with the people whom I have bonded with them.

Seriously this is the life of friends i wanted so much badly, how i wish i could get to meet them almost every day. People like Nazri, Safiah, Eqin, Hakim, Fadhli, Farhana, Mel, Dee, Adilah, Emily and lastly my cousin Lisany who is the closest to me like a friend. Gone are the ITE days where my friends just don't have my trust because of one guy who sabotaged me, i will never forget what he did until now he still don't want to admit his wrongdoings, so i couldn't be bothered. What's left is this girl who still keep this friendship going is none other than Liyana, thanks for being there when i'm down, i appreciated it so much even though we never see each other for months. That's all i have to say...

2008-08-17T20:56:00.006+08:00

this week was a blast and i have enjoyed every minute of it...here's my entries.

12th - 14th Aug '08

been working late nights due to some urgent work regarding about ration wastages my unit has incurred and getting people to pay up for the last three months of may, june and july, this is the reason why i don't like it being a Ration I/C, if you indent ration for the day/week, please scan your 11B if you want to eat or not, by not doing so...there will be loads of work for me to do. At last, thursday morning it was cleared and hopefully there will less wastage in the month of August...I need a new understudy soon to take over my work, can't wait to ORD...hahaha =D

how i wished the year will only get faster..

15th Aug '08

My favourite day of the week...i was at Maju Camp for an ORD talk which helps me to prepare what am i going to do after my completion of NS, study or work? i'm still thinking and planning, can anyone give me advices...hahahaha!! after the event was over at 2pm, i took a bus home, bought Big Mac for lunch and watch tv, go online till evening, i met up with nazri to chill in town, i went to get my jersey printed with my name on it and had LJS for dinner and went back home.

16th Aug '08

It was Safiah's Birthday and she already invited us to ECP, it was also an outing for us...even though it was a short one as we were late, supposed to be there by noon, but came 2 hrs later, met emellza and her friend, farhana, dee, fad...settle some stuffs first, went to cycle for 2 hours with the gorgeous ladies =D you know who you are..I'm grateful to you all for being my friends even though we hardly knew each other yet, let's keep the friendship going strong yah?

thanks to dee for sharing the pics...

17th Aug '08

It was my rest day, i hardly slept well and many things were in my mind, my relatives came over to my place just to have a small gathering after which i watch tv and went online...that's all for the week...

2008-08-11T22:00:00.002+08:00

8th Aug '08

I was supposed to have plans with my friend to the beach, but her mum didn't allowed her to go, so it's understandable, in the end diyana called me to ask whether i'm free to hangout with her at northpoint with her sister for lunch, since i got nothing to do at home, i told her that i will join her, met them at Burger King, chatted for awhile and i ordered lunch since i was hungry, soon after we just hang around till it was time to go back home. I went online for awhile to chat with my buddies, had early dinner and went down to the dvd kiosk to borrow some dvds to watch since there's not much tv programmes...hahaha!!!

This day marks Singapore's 43rd Birthday and will be the last time i will be missing my army contigent friends and fellow motivators. The whole day was filled with fun and laugther, celebrated the birthdays for Dina, Ivy and Juaini which fall that week of august, took load of photos to capture the last memories which we will not get to meet again, The parade was filled with people who came in red and was eagerly waitng for the parade to start, soon after it began to drizzle, luckily it was light one or else we were unsure whether heavy rain will dampen our mood to perform. as night came everyone was waiting for the post parade party to begin, we have enjoyed ourselves as much as we can till we were tired to carry on. To Cluster D and Team 4...thanks for all the memories we have had since the day we have known each other for the first time, i will miss you guys...but keep in touch =D

11th Aug '08

I was too tired that i woke up at 1pm...as it was my rest day, i decided to watch TV till evening which i got a call from eqin and hakim that she wanna hang out at yishun central to have dinner, not long after nazri came and we decided to have muslim food for dinner, a quick one and decided to go shopping and went to nazri's house to have chat before heading back home, that's all for the week.

2008-08-03T20:45:00.004+08:00

It's the start of August and another weekend gone, how time flies...i can smell my pink IC is coming nearer...hahaha!!, well this is what i did the last few days..

1st Aug '08

That friday was actually quite dull in camp, woke up at 6am to wash up, change and went to have breakfast, since there was no liferun that day, i decided to head to the gym to exercise, went back to bunk to rest till 10.30am, then reported for work till lunch time. Later awhile duty sergeant called to say that there will be a bunk check and last parade at 2.45pm which i will get to go home early, but i stayed on till 3.30pm to finish up my work and book out for the day. I went back home to rest for awhile, in the evening i went out to meet some of my mentors at bukit merah, went there to get the identification pass for NDP and chatted for while, from there i took a bus and headed to bukit panjang, it was my nephew's birthday and BBQ gathering, my family was already waiting for me, i had my dinner and favourite chicken wings and some drinks to go with the flow, chatted a lot of topics and stayed there till 3am and took a cab home.

2nd Aug '08

woke up real early morning to have breakfast with my cousin before she left for work, i did some stuffs for awhile at home, met nazri for awhile since i wanted to borrow his cam for the NDP preview, just wanna try to take some shots and experience being a photographer for the day, i'm interested in photography for quite sometime, but i don't have the cash to get a digicam for myself, i'm actually saving up to buy one. I was quite busy with the NDP stuffs, with so many changes going on and my right foot was in pain, it was unbearable until i cannot take it, i took the medicine to let it subside. After the Preview ended, waited for the public to go off first and went back to the holding area for debrief, after that i met up some of the motivators to relax and chill since it as still early to go home, i had alot of fun being with them even though they are few years younger than me, we chatted quite a number of topics and even have plans to hold a year end chalet, since it was close to midnight, we decided to call a day and went home.

3rd Aug '08

Woke up at 10am, still i was quite tired...did some revision for my upcoming exams until afternoon, went to take a nap...then have my late lunch and continue till evening and met up nazri to pass back his digicam...that's all i have for this week.

2008-07-27T20:54:00.003+08:00

it was a week where i shall never forget despite the tiredness towards the weekend...

24th July '08

That afternoon in camp, my madam wanted me and the guys in the office to bring in the additional tables to our office as we don't have the workspace to do our own things, so we had carry from one point to another, it was a tough work for us as the workstations was heavy and need five people to carry it, this was done up and down for three times, we were so exhausted after everything was done till office hours. I was so tired but still got the energy to book out for the night to fetch my brother from school since it was raining, had dinner and went home to relax for awhile to use the PC and watch TV and book in that night and sleep straight away.

25th July '08

It was my duty for the day in the Ops Room, since many of my unit guys went to ECP for their 21km run due to the upcoming AHM or Singapore Bay Run organised by SAFRA, it was so boring that i used the PC the whole day to pass time. I hate to do duties on friday, that's where everybody will book out to enjoy the weekend, but i shall never this day which our officer gave those who still in office an early release at 2.45pm, the feeling was so great that i got no mood to talk to those who were going home...yea, i admit i'm jealous cause i can't go back home...hahahaha!!! that evening i went to collect dinner for those on duties in my unit for seven guys including me at the muslim cookhouse, it was damn far and i had to walk with the ration bag to-and-fro, later on...i went online since there was nothing to do, chatted on msn with some of my buddies and had dinner at the same time, since it was already at night, i went back to my bunk and get my toiletries stuff to go and shower, being alone in the building late at night with the lights so dim gives me the cold shoulder, but i'm not afraid...hahaha, i just did it quickly and change, head back to the duty room and use the PC again before heading to bed.

26th July '08

Woke up real early morning at 5.30am just to go and eat breakfast at the cookhouse, i came back and sleep again, i was real tired..but the person who was to take over me for the saturday shift came at 6.30am, it was supposed to be an hour later, so it was a good timing, since i was tired, i decided to go back to my bunk and packed my things, book out from camp, walked back all the way home and took a nap. Later that day there was an outing at Sentosa since there was no NDP rehearsals going on. I met nazri at khatib mrt, we proceeded and went to harbourfront mrt, upon reaching, i called safiah to asked where was her location, and she was at vivociy sky garden, so we went to meet her, settled down and made some really cool drawing stuff for hakim which was his 17th Birthday. Once everthing was done, i smsed eqin and she replied that she's still on the way and will be late. So i have no choice but to have my lunch first since my stomach was calling me to go and eat...hahahaha!! had Long John's for lunch, eventually they reached and we move off to take the sentosa express and headed to the merlion to take some pictures, went back to the bustling area to get some stuffs from 7-11, i met my NDP cluster ppl who were also there as we had an outing later on at palawan beach. Met them again and set up everything we had, it was time for fun and activities on the sea, playing water polo and some sort water rugby...hahaha, even played beach soccer later on, injured my foot and was swelling, thanks to fad, played keeper pro eh...hahahaha!! later that night it was time to retire, i went to shower and change into my new clothes, waited for the rest and went back to vivocity, bought takeaway dinner and went to sky garden to slack till we went back home.

27th July '08

I was so tired today that i went down for my lunch, came back to watch TV, use the PC to slack until evening...that's all for this week!!

2008-07-20T17:18:00.012+08:00

The last weekend of the day and here are the updates for what I have done for the week...

15 July '08

it was a working day as usual in camp and there was nothing much to do in the office, was reading newspapers, doing my own things and chatting with my colleagues, as soon as it was time to knock off, it was raining heavily and went for my last parade, went back to bunk to shower, changed my clothes and waited for the rain to stop cause i have to meet up some of my NDP Cluster at Marina Square for dinner, as it was already late for me to take the train to town, i have no choice but to flag down a cab and head there. Met them at the food court, eventually Ain, Ju, Naq and Jess were on the way, so i had my dinner first cause i was hungry, after awhile they came and had their dinner. soon it was almost 8pm and we were rushing to catch MagixBox concert at the esplanade, the tickets was given complimentary to us.

I have to say the show was amazing and great, full of surprises and humour, it lasted over two and half hours including intervals. And lastly we took photos before heading back home. (Naq...please send me the photos)

16th July '08

It was my off day because of my involvement in the NDP, it was supposed to be on monday but i changed it to wednesday due to the concert the previous night, so that afternoon i met up with my childhood friend nazri to hang out in town and survey for stuffs, he eventually told me that safiah was coming, earlier on i was blur when he messaged me that yaya was coming, i was like oh ok...hahaha!! throughout the journey on the train we chatted some topics about our daily activities in camp and so on, when we reached our destination, we thought of waiting for her but it was still a long way, so we decided to walk around citylink mall and browse for watches, apparels and waited for safiah at the adidas outlet, eventually she was supposed to be in school studying but she skipped it as we have not met up for a long time, so we continued browsing until we were hungry, Long John Silver's was our lunch and i promised safiah i will treat her to a meal for the things she had done for me, i was expecting her to buy an expensive meal but she chose the cheaper option, very weird of her. We chatted a lot of stuffs during lunch, thereafter we went to suntec to go shopping and take some photos, eventually eqin smsed me and said she was on the way and want us to meet her up at city hall mrt because she want to head to peninsular plaza and get her stuffs, in the end we had to walked back all the way just to go there, done with her shopping, we wanted to find a place to sit down, relax and talk, eqin suggested going to Ya Kun Kaya Toast, so we were fine with that place...ordered some toast bread with lemon tea, made some jokes and took photos before heading back home.

19 July '08

That morning, as usual i wanted to have breakfast with my cousin, but she was so sick and i brought her to our family doctor, she was running a very high fever and she was weak, but it was a common virus and nothing serious happened, i was already running late for my NDP rehearsals and training, so there was no one to take care of her, i called my relatives, but they were all busy working, so i had to ask her friend if she will be kind enough to take care of my cousin and she agreed, so i waited for her to come to my place, as i was ready to go off...i took a cab down and met up with the rest for our NDP rehearsal, had lunch at our holding area, waiting for instructions to proceed to the platform, the mood was upbeat as we were eager to go all out for our last NE show before the real test begins for the Preview show on Aug 2nd, while mingling around the platform, it started to rain heavily, our energy level began to go down abit but nevertheless the show will still go on. At the end of the parade segment, we headed back to our holding area to have our dinner and return for the grand finale for the fireworks even though it was raining, at the end of the parade, everyone had a great time and looking forward for the Preview, later on we had a debrief regarding about next week's schedule. Awhile later my cousin messaged me whether we could catch The Dark Knight movie at The Cathay, i wasn't sure if she's ok to watch as she wasn't feeling unwell, but she insist on watching and her friend is also around, i met up with eqin, safiah and the rest to hang around at marina square for awhile before they headed back home, i went to Cathay to booked the tickets for the midnight show, while waiting for them, i was at starbucks and ordered ice blended mocha. They came, quickly we made our way up to get some light snacks and proceed to the hall and be seated.

Overall the movie is 152 minutes and worth the money watching it, the best sequel since Batman Begins, the late Heath Ledger potrayed as The Joker is one of the great villain i've ever seen, the character fits him completely, and the action scenes was so thrilling, so to those who have not watch, please see it before goes off the list from the cinema. In the end we all took the Nite Owl bus and headed home.

20 July '08

I woke up exactly 12 noon, that explains how bloody tired i was the previous night and got sick too, lucky it was a bad flu and rested alot the whole day...that's all for the week!!

2008-07-13T20:19:00.006+08:00

Another great weekend had just gone in a flash, i have been sick for the past few months and it won't just go away, been vomitting too much with traces of blood, high fever, running nose and my body is just too weak to move up and down, but it gave me the strength to recover in time to be perfectly alright. I wish to thank the people who prayed for me and sent well wishes, really appreciated the effort you guys have done.

Saturday morning i woke up bright and early to have breakfast with my cousin, that's what we always do every weekend when there's no schedule for us, that afternoon are spent at the marina bay floating platform where NDP '08 is held this year, the tireless trainings, rehearsals are taking the toll on me, but i'm enjoying every minute of it, on the other hand...being a touch mentor to these wonderful teenagers brought smiles and laughters on my face, the time spent with them is worthwhile even though i don't get to see them often, i know my saturdays are burned, normally i usually spent hanging out with friends to meet up, catch a movie, coffee sessions or slacking around, but i love to volunteer most, it's to repay back the society, no one can take that away from my life, this is where i get to meet new people and made friends with them...these teenagers are what i called them my little sisters and brothers...that's all for the week.

Juaini, Naqiah and Ain (our years of friendship still going strong)

Chloe, Maria, Dina, Dilah and Nana (my little sisters, friendship soon to come...maybe?)

NDP 2008 Cluster D (you guys are simply the best!!!)

there's more photos to be uploaded soon...

2008-07-06T16:35:00.014+08:00

I'm back after a long absence for not updating my blog for 2 months plus, i'm sorry for not being able to track back what i have been doing...really busy with my NDP commitments, lots of work to be done in camp and lastly, sunday football kickabout with fellow ManUtdSG buddies.

How time flies, going to ORD in 5 months, the excitment is there...but the sorrows just won't go away, i just don't understand why friendship come and goes, the group of people that I used to hang out with them every weekends are no longer the same, just that three of the others are still in contact and we meet up once in every two weeks, I just can't be bothered to those who does not care what trust and friendship is about, the pain is too much to bear...i'm refering to those in my ITE days, it's so hard to forget them, right now i just want to let go and start a new chapter.

These are some of the photos that i will continue to treasure the friendship in time to come...(guys, sorry for not obtaining your permission for the photos =D)

Nazri (since pri sch days)

Kenneth Neo Sian Wei (NDP 2007 Cluster D)

Eqin (NDP 2006 Cluster C)

Lisa and Emily (crazy ladies from sec sch)

and ManUtdSG buddies, you will be the next to feature in my blog...

That's all for the week...

2008-04-25T21:58:00.003+08:00

i hardly have the time to update since i'm busy in and out of camp all because the escaped terrorist, having countless days of irregular shift and burn weekends, i know some of you guys miss me on weekends, i will be free once the OPS end this coming 29th april...

will update soon...

2008-04-14T20:41:00.009+08:00

what a weekend it was, many events going around and i was simply exhausted.

Saturday - 12 April '08

as usual it was the NDP '08 training that morning, it was only for a few hours, we just played some icebreaking games and introduced ourselves to our new cluster. After that i met up with the usual members to have lunch and window shop at Tampines Mall, from there i decided to go home and take an afternoon nap since i'm meeting nazri, eqin and hakim to hang out, the others couldn't make it due to tiredness and last minute plan, sorry to ain and naqiah. Met naz on the way at khatib mrt station and headed to dhoby ghaut to meet up eqin and hakim, walked around Plaza Singapura. Soon we were already hungry and decided to have ayam penyet for our dinner at lucky plaza, the food looks good though but the avocado juice was sold out, i missed that for quite sometime. Awhile later we went to around and survey for stuffs, after leaving...we thought it was late, but to our surprised the time was only 9pm so we decided to walk around orchard, thought of slacking at one corner but eqin suggested taking neoprints, i was reluctant at first, but it was cool to have this photos printed out, really nice...hahaha!!

Soon after, we decided to slack at Ngee Ann City open space where the water fountain is, chatted about topics, planning to have some events in may..realising the time was late, we decided to head home, departed ways and spent some time on the PC to do my project slides for the ISO Management Review and went to bed.

Sunday - 13 April '08

I was at home the whole day watching TV, DVDs, went online, play games till evening which i decided to watched the match at Crab Shack, i'm not a first timer over there, it's already been sometime last year, i urged all man united fans to witness catching any big games over there, atmosphere will be simply intense, i guess some of you have already caught me on national television...hehehehe, overall the game was quite an open play with both sides attacking, my heart was thumping up and down, can't imagine everytime man united loses possesion of the ball, there was a lot of events going there and managed to take some photos, and went home happily and tired.

Posing with Jensen Ho after the match and lucky draw.

Cheering after the post match interview.

Huge Crowd @ Crab Shack.

This Sunday will be a very important day as the Red Devils would be hosting the gooners at Old Trafford for the top of the table clash. The devils have to win this match to further enhance the chance of defending our crown and the gooners will be trying to spoil the party although their chance of winning the league is slim but I'm sure it will be a mouth watering match for the fans of both teams.

Starhub will be holding a "live" broadcast from CrabShack and the event will be hosted by Power98 DJ Jensen Ho and The New Paper's Gary Lim. There will be fun contests and lucky draws. So dont miss out on the chance to appear on TV cheering your team.

Remember to deck out in your United jersey, preferably the red home jersey so we can paint crab shack RED this sunday.

The shooting will start on 10pm and we expect to have a big crowd so please come early if you want to get a better seating. The match will be shown live on Football Channel at 10:55 pm sharp.

Hope to see you there to cheer on for our beloved Manchester United!!

Best red regards,

Admin

20th Mar '08

That early morning was my NE Trip to the Civic District Trail, it was raining heavily, we had to postpone till it was slightly drizzling, it was tiring to walk around but nevertheless, we managed to complete the whole journey, from there i met my mum at her workplace to have lunch, at the same time, went to her office at One Raffles Quay to admire the seaview and the upcoming Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort, awhile later Naqiah texted me and asked to meet me at city hall since we already planned to meet Ain in the evening later. Soon after i met her, had lunch and went to window shop and since the both of us were tired, we smsed ain to let her know that we wanted to go home and have a rest, departed from there, went home and slept straight away till night.

21st - 23rd Mar '08

It was Eqin's Birthday cum chalet, we already planned to celebrated her 19th Birthday at Downtown East for 3 days and 2 nights, overall i don't want to expressed what was going on, all i can say is the experienced we had was quite average and i was too busy to notice what was going on that day itself. Sunday night i've already told my football kakis that i will be heading to Crab Shack to catch the Big match Live between Man United and Liverpool, it was a huge turnout over there, got to meet new people and interact with them throughout the whole match, and the match was highly intense with 3 goals, went home happily and tired.

24th Mar '08

It was my rest day, i could say even though i was using the PC, watching TV and doing other stuffs, i was rather tired, it could be because of the chalet i spend on the weekends, i've not had enough sleep, it will be back to normal the next few days...see ya folks!!

14th Mar '08

once again it's friday, i can't believe it's 2 weeks more before month of march is going to end, eventually i book out from camp around 6.15pm, i was already late as i've an appointment with Ken Neo, Eqin and Hakim at 7pm. It was just a short meeting with them, when i reached orchard, none of them were there...as i expected they were going to be late...so i met Ken Neo at takashimaya, he wanted to buy a present for his friend's 21st birthday, so i gave suggestions on what type to buy, in the end he made up his mind and decided to purchase the wallet...at this moment, eqin called and we met up, thinking where to go next, i decided to have my dinner at LJS, since they had theirs earlier, they accompanied me to have my dinner. It's great to have them around...they will be talking stories, topics or even jokes, from there we decided to head home early at 10pm.

15th Mar '08

There was no plans on a saturday morning, lucky i have enough rest, watch TV, used the PC, text ain and naqiah about the plan for the day, so we decided to meet up at 3pm at dhoby ghaut, planned to watch Step Up 2, eventually we queued up to get the tickets, an annoucement were made to tell us that the tickets were sold out for the 4.30pm slot, we had no choice but to catch it another time. So we just window shop around at Plaza Singapura, had our early dinner at KFC, soon after we took our own sweet time to walk to City Hall, went to Peninsular to see some sporting goods, awhile later...eqin and hakim joined us, headed to Funan to walk around and browse. It was already at night and we decided to rest, many of them still wanted to eat at KFC, i was like *mouth open wide*, it was ain's treat...i still refused since my stomach's full, i just had a drink for myself. Next we wanted to discuss Eqin's upcoming chalet, headed to esplande and relax, just only discussed a few questions with them. Lastly I had to go off because i'm expecting some new guys coming down to catch the football match between Derby vs Man United at Crab Shack, met them...chatted for awhile and get to socialise around, overall the match was not the best performance i've seen even though man united won it very badly, from there...i had to say goodbye and left with my soocer kaki Jason, talked all the way from tanjong pagar to Central @ Clarke Quay, departed from there and took a bus, reached home around 2.30am, surprised to see my mum still watching TV, didn't want to sleep since i'm not tired yet, went online to do my usual stuffs and knocked out at 5am

16th Mar '08

woke up at 10am, washed myself up...read the papers, didn't planned to go church, so i waited for my aunties, uncles and cousins since they are coming to my home for lunch gathering. Got to watch the new Formula 1 Season Australia Grand Prix 2008, overall it was an exciting race, happened to see a lot of level playing field this time since they changed the rules for traction control, looking forward for next week race at Sepang, Malaysia, from afternoon till now i have been using the PC to pass my time, That's all for the week.

7th Mar '08

Thank Goodness It's Friday, hahaha...it's the best day of the week, always get to book out in the evening and go home, in fact i was supposed to meet my secondary school buddy alif, wanted to pass him the Microsoft Office 2003 CD, but i had to cancel it because i was expecting my relatives to come over to my house, my mum told me when i reached home, so i had to postponed the plan. My relatives came over for dinner, it's such a long time i have not seen my nephew and nieces, kids nowadays are growing up fast unlike those days, chatted with my cousins about life and how they are getting on with work and so on, eventually the conversation ended quite late as midnight and immediately wanted to go home since they have plans on a saturday morning.

8th Mar '08

it was the usual stuff every saturday, i'm involved in the NDP this year as a mentor, so we had the auditions at ITE Simei that morning, trying to recruit the best motivators, overall the response was quite poor, only a few percentage could make it. Soon after...the mentors already planned to have lunch at Plaza Singapura, eventually myself, Hau Geng and 2 others took a cab, reached our destination, we had The Manhattan Fish Market...many thanks to Junyuan for treating the lunch. it was already about 2pm, i had to go home as i have a wedding to attend, it was my closed friend who got married, we both knew each other since young cause' our parents knew each other from the same working place, Congrats to Joanne. After the makan feast, as usual i went to Crab Shack to watch the FA Cup match between Man United vs Portsmouth, sadly it was not our day...my soccer kakis was wondering what went wrong for them, we had to move on, took a train back home and do my stuff on the PC till late.

9th Mar '08

I've already planned to go to the IT Show with nazri, i woke up around 11.30am due to the tiredness i had the previous day, supposed to meet him at 1pm, but my dad called from work, he forgotten to bring his documents, i had no choice but to give him, lucky it was at Ang Mo Kio area, i knew the place...so it was easier for me go by bus since i knew the way to his office, passed him the documents, went off...took a bus back to the mrt station, had my quick lunch at AMK Hub and met naz in the train on the way, reached our destination...as usual it was packed at Suntec, we had to squeeze in the crowd, nevetheless we managed to get by, to cut the words short, naz bought a SD Card and i bought myself a sennheiser earphones for my iPod, wish to thank diyana for replying the text message even though she wasn't sure where the booth was. Eventually we window shopped at Carrefour and survey for some stuffs before heading back home, the weekend spent was worth it...

10th Mar '08

It's my off day, hahaha...the reason is to celebrate my dad's birthday which falls on this day, i cannot reveal his age here...hahaha, it's a secret. we just had dinner and some drinks...we didn't want it to be so grand, just a simple mini birthday celebration, that's all for the week!

Went back to the chalet to relax, play games and chatted until it was about 5pm, we decided to get ready for the BBQ, everybody did their part by setting up as fast as they could, already started to barbecue the raw food, it started raining, and we had to stop for awhile...about 15 mins later we resumed and everyone was eagerly waiting for the food, soon after we had a farewell cake for our madam to thank her for what she had done for out unit in the past 7 years, and next was the photo session which everyone got involved, it was already 10pm and some of them wants to go home while myself, some officers and my fellow mates are staying overnight, many of us played with cards, there was this bet where everyone has to drink if they picked up a spade of card...hahaha, it was fun and enjoyable, most of the unlucky ones were drunk and got knocked out. The next morning we had a quick breakfast at McDonald's, went back to pack up, check out from the chalet and went back home to have a good sleep.

1st March '08

woke up bright and early to have breakfast at home, watch television and played FIFA 08 on my PC to pass time until evening, supposed to go out with my cousin to beauty world shopping centre at bukit timah, she got a last minute call from her boss asking her to work due to shortage of manpower at her workplace since many of her colleagues took MC, and i wanted to go alone, but since it's rather dull...i stayed at home until evening, met up hakim and eqin at city hall...went to withdraw money before having our dinner at Sakura @ Capitol, wanted to call ain to join us, however she was having problems with her guy, so i told eqin to forget about calling her...paid for the food and went off...happened to saw azhari, surprisingly he left his friends and joined us, went to city hall mrt station meet up Ken Neo as we had planned to catch the match at Crab Shack, happened to saw ijah, aini and hafia at the same time...hahaha, fated to meet together again, awhile later all of us departed from there, while me and Ken Neo talked all the way till we reach Tanjong Pagar, proceed to the Official Supporters Club to watch the game live between Fulham vs Man United, as usual it was an easy game for the devils and close the gap on Arsenal, during the match...ain called me and ask me to join her after game ends, i was shocked that many of them still have not went home around 1am, so both of us walked all the way back to city hall and met them up again, went to lepak at gluttons bay @ esplanade, talked all the way till 2.45am, me and ken neo went home while the rest still stayed on.

2nd March '08

15th Feb '08

that particular late afternoon was our CO change of command parade which i was involved in F&B, had to set up everything to cater for high ranking officers which the tasked given to me was tough. Lucky there was a lot of manpower to help me to run the whole show smoothly. Eventually i had to leave early as i had futsal training with my football kakis at 8pm at Jurong FICO Sports Hub, overall it was a great evening to play with them around since this the first time i'm meeting them and there was no language barrier among us, shortly after had dinner nearby, chatted topics ranging A to Z...and thanks to andrew for driving me home.

16th Feb '08

it was supposed to be a day where i always go out to town in the afternoon, somehow it was dragged till evening, met up naz and went to city hall, surveyed for stuffs at peninsular, in the end we were bored, so i text eqin and asked them whether we could meet up and she indeed said yes, so i asked her to join us and have dinner, as well as discuss about her chalet plan and schedule on the 21st to 22nd march, from there i went to Crab Shack to catch the match between Man United against Arsenal which was thrilling game that ended four goals on a high note, took the nite owl bus service and went home.

17th Feb' 08

late morning i had training with my football kakis at Deyi Sec, it was a training which the lads had to warm up for their friendly games the next few weeks...overall i had a great time with them on the pitch and thereafter had lunch with them and went back home.

23rd Feb '08

i was selected to be a mentor for this year's NDP 2008, i got a suprise call from my ex-mentor asking me to come down to ITE simei for auditions, eventually my army unit is also involved in the NDP this year but i'm not too sure what we are doing this year. Awhile later, I met up some of my NDP '07 cluster D mates, went off to vivocity to have lunch followed by a gathering session, off we went to marina square to have bowling fun which naz joined us too, soon after we went home early since we are meeting up again the next morning.

24th Feb '08

this morning i already promised my football kakis that i will be at safra tampines to watch the match against ArsenalSG, met my buddy Jason at tampines interchange to go there since he doesn't know the area very well, took a bus and went there to meet up ken neo, ain, some of the regulars and supporters, soon after naz came as he went to gym earlier...the game was entertaining but i'm quite disheartened by the fact that this was supposed to be a friendly match which ended up as a mass brawl...from there...we went back to tampines century square to slack at coffee bean...awhile later ain's mum called to ask her to go home since her mum don't have the keys, she had no choice as to leave us, eventually ken neo wants to go home since he's sleepy, myself and naz just walk around until his friend diyana wants to pass him the valentine's gift she bought for him, chatted for awhile until her friend came, not long after we decided to parted ways and went back home.

2008-02-11T20:50:00.000+08:00

first of all i would like to wish Happy Chinese New Year and happy holidays to everyone, another week pass like a flash...i had to do my duty on the eve and 1st day of new year, so far i've been watching tv, using the pc and slacking around in the duty room, there's nothing much to be done...

Book out on friday early morning at 7am, had breakfast at home and went took a nap, i woke up around noon just to have lunch, play pc games all the way till night and met up with nazri at mac to lepak, he was having problems with this guy in camp who owes him money, he was not in a good mood...around 3am, we decided to go back since we were tired.

Woke up bright and early on saturday, already got plans to go out in the afternoon to get my football stuffs and kits, but it was cancelled since my friend could not make it. It was evening already and i decided to meet hakim and eqin at orchard mrt, went to far east to have dinner at Sakura, from there we took a bus to city hall and lepak all the way till late night and headed home.

had a great time on Sunday, went down to do some marketing...since my cousins were coming to my place for lunch...and i had plans to go queensway with nazri with another buddy of mine who just got back from Ipoh, finally i went there to get my football kits and stuff which i got training coming up this sunday 17th feb...headed back home to put all the things, had a quick dinner and went to Crab Shack to catch the Manchester Derby match, sadly it was a dull game...and i headed home to have my beautiful sleep...

today is my off day as i don't want to go out, just want to rest until i head back to camp tonight...

2008-02-04T19:43:00.000+08:00

another week gone and now it's february, time pass really fast huh?? in fact i'm counting down the days to ORD...hahaha, it's 10 months and 12 days from now on...still long way to go.

Lisany and Emily

last friday evening, we got an early release at 4.45pm since everyone wants to do some last minute CNY shopping and myself had plans with my cousin lisany and her bestie emily which i got to know through her which we studied in the same school together, both of them were in the same class, mine was just next door...haha, when i had the intention of going to toilet every different lesson, always used to disturb them since they were sitted near the windows, even the teachers knew lisa and myself were cousins...it really bring memories those days, if only i could turn back the time...

Met them at dhoby ghaut around 7.00pm, my timing was just nice, emily came first...i was surprised to see that she change a lot ever since i last saw her september last year, she's getting prettier...hehehe, as usual my cousin is always late, she will never change her habit of meeting up on time...waited for her about half an hour, off we went to have our dinner at cafe cartel at Plaza Singapura, i love eating their food at their restaurant ever since i went to their outlet at Serangoon Gardens...the 3 of us ordered Southern Chicken Cutlet...our favourite main course of all time and Coral Blue Italian Cream Soda drink, absolutely delicious...hahaha!!

Soon we left the place, initially we wanted to go shop around...there's nothing much at PS, almost the same old shit you will see every weekend, so we took a slow walk to orchard...we chatted topics, created lame jokes and do all sort of crazy things on the streets...reached our destination at Cineleisure Orchard, planned to catch the movie American Gangster but tickets was sold out, we had no choice and had to slack around at Paragon Starbucks until we were all tired to move on and i had to meet up nazri back to my place and pass him the phone that was repaired since he was in camp, slack awhile and chatted about the JB trip the next day organised by eqin...

The last trip i went to JB was 8th Oct 2004...that's 4 yrs, i didn't went there because for some reasons like cases of robberies, attacking people that was reported on the news, when eqin organised the trip, my intention was not to go for the trip because of NS, but since eqin wanted to go, as a girl...to let her roam the streets in JB would be very dangerous, after so much speculation, i decided to go ahead with the plan...

Woke up early morning at 5am to take my time to shower, changed and meet them, called nazri and alert him, awhile later eqin text me to call hakim since it was already late, she thought he was still asleep, i got myself ready and was prepared to go, while on the way to the mrt station, i sense something was not right, so i checked my bag and found out that i forgot to bring my passport, went back home to retrieve it, hehehe...damn lucky, met naz and hop on the train to woodlands to meet eqin and hakim, waited for them and went to the interchange to take the bus to JB, once we had reached there, to my surprise the place still looks the same to me...so i can exactly knew where the places are...went to city square to shop around, i didn't plan to get anything for myself, i spent mostly on food and transport...few hours later, went to larkin to survey...eventually it didn't interest us except a few shops. From there headed to skudai parade, it was 20-30 min ride, somehow we thought we got lost since we've passed the area, the guys was worried..then naz asked the couple seated beside him, it was still further up...we got to our destination right, eqin got her things mostly...envy her that she had the money to spent...hahaha, it was already evening and we decided to head back to the city square since hakim and naz already surveyed the shoes they wanted to buy and bought it after we had our dinner at Mcdonald's, it was already 9pm and we decided to call it a day and head back to our island safe and sound...

2008-01-28T20:14:00.000+08:00

Friday nights is always the best day to book out...hahaha, in fact i was supposed to do duty in camp, i can't do since i 've family dinner which i get to see my relatives and cousins, so i asked any of my unit guys who wants to buy my duty, luckily one of them was willing to do for the night...

Saturday plans were already made, early morning i met up nazri to renew our passport, went to ICA building and met up with riyas since he's working there, went up to take a ticket to queue, it was less than 5 mins to renew, hahaha...from there we headed to mustafa to survey for stuffs and had breakfast before heading home, later on i went swimming at Jurong East with ken neo, hakim, eqin and two of her friends, we have enjoyed ourselves in the water for long...evening was approaching, we decided to retire for the day as our legs are unable to carry on...had a quick shower and waited for them...went to have dinner at west coast and eventually headed back home with eqin's friends on the same train...

Sunday was supposed to be my day resting home, since i have plans to watch movie with my friends, went to watch Rambo 4 at GV Marina...one of the best action packed movie...my rating 5/5 stars...

Movie ended 5 plus, just in time to have our early dinner at Suntec City, from there headed to Esplanade to catch some fresh air, there was not many people around...we had so many topics to talk about and i nearly forgotten to tell them that there was F1 Ferrari Roadshow at Clarke Quay Central Square, off we went there to view what's going on...actually i'm not Ferrari Fan, but i was forced to take a photo with them...hahaha, hope McLaren wins next season...

2008-01-20T19:58:00.000+08:00

updated for the week...

14 January '08 is the day my MC officially ends, it's back to NS life now after i have enjoyed my time at home and outside...it's good to be back in camp where workload is waiting to be cleared up. Book out on friday night...met up some friends to slack.

Saturday was my cousin's birthday...eventually i was at home until i headed to his place at pasir ris late afternoon, as usual only our family was there, just a small celebration till night...thereafter i went to Crab Shack @ Shenton Way, home of Man United Singapore Supporters Club to meet up some kakis to watch the game, Ken Neo couldn't make it since he's working and went home straight away.

This morning i woke up, feeling giddy and tired...the plan i got for this afternoon around 4pm. I was supposed to meet up eqin, hakim and ken neo, but i told them i can't go since i'm not well and have report back to camp by 11pm, due to misunderstanding that the plan was cancelled, i'm terribly sorry guys, my mind is not in right state...hope to make it next weekend...

that's all folks...

2008-01-07T02:05:00.000+08:00

Yeah!!! I'm back once again after a long absence...in fact the reason why i can't update my blog is that my cousin lost the password, told her not to change as i can access it if she's not updating for me...finally I'm relieved that she wrote the password down and kept it safely, thank you Lisany!!

Well...to those of you who wanna know about my leg, i'm doing good and walking without worries...but still fragile, hehehe!!

Here are some updates which i had not done so:

30th Nov 2007

I wanna thank those who made my birthday a surprise...here's what happened on that day...

I was supposed to meet them at city hall around 7.30pm, i was late...so i decided to take a cab straight to marina square, thinking i would be able to reach there on time, but i was wrong...there was a heavy traffic along CTE and cars was moving slowly, no choice as there's no other way out...reached there approximately at 8pm and waited for them.

Soon after Ken Neo and Juaini came, we chatted for sometime until Ken Neo passed me a shirt, i didn't looked at it as i was still having a conversation with them, then Nazri and Ain came...planned to have dinner at cavana, while walking...i had the chance to see what shirt they bought for me, to my surprise it was the Manchester United jersey which i had ordered from Neo, didn't expect him to gave me as a birthday present, and not forgetting Juaini who bought the Famous Amos Cookies she bought for me.

After having dinner, we decided to slack at starbucks, not expecting any treat from them, both Ain and Nazri managed to buy cakes just to have a mini celebration, awhile later all of us started bringing up topics, giving advice to each other problems...not realising it was late, everyone wants to go home happily and have a good sleep...

31st Dec 2007 - 1st Jan 2008

The day i spent on New Year Countdown with the usual people, around 4 plus...met Ken Neo at city hall, waited for Ain, Eqin, Hakim and his friend, we went to 7-11 to get some drinks and snacks before heading to Merlion Park for the fireworks.

Fortunately there was not much people around, we got the best location and sat down, chit-chat about the latest happenings, made lame jokes...hours after, all of us were hungry...so i asked them to buy food while me and Ain will be around, to my sudden surprise, Ain had to go home as her mum was alone.

While we waited for midnight to strike, i got a sms from nazri saying that he's coming to join with us, eventually most of the crowd had gathered and it was so packed that peolple had to squeeze in, mobile network was jammed and hard to get nazri on the line, but he did managed to find us somehow, in order for him to join us, he was struggling alone, many people standing didn't give way to him, so i asked this family in a kind manner to let him pass through, and the lady talked to me back and said "why should we let him join you"...i was shocked and disgusted by the way she said to me, i knew they were not locals...i got pissed off but no matter what, i still ask nazri to force his way in and he succeeded just in time to join us for the countdown, exactly midnight...fireworks shoot up the sky, it was the new year and everyone got engross by the display of fireworks, some people were shouting like animals...at the end, we went to Lau Pa Sat to have supper, saw naqiah and her friends, ordered satay and drinks to fill our stomach.

Took a slow walk to Memorial Park...found a place to slack, chat, created jokes and mostly Ken Neo for talking about soccer non stop...hahaha, awhile later we saw cars racing illegally in the streets and going round the city area, so myself and Neo went nearer to witness ourselves, while it was getting bored..we decided to take photos which nazri brought his camera, got snapshots for ourselves until it was dawn.

Lastly we wanted to have breakfast before we head home, went to marina square McDonald's...it was not opened yet, so i brought them to Odeon Towers which was the 24 hrs outlet, ordered our food and ate in a hurry, separated with the people and went home around 8am to have a good sleep...

2007-10-29T17:42:00.000+08:00

My apologies for not updating, you can say i was too busy or plain lazy to blog, the past few weeks has gone by, i can't remembered what plan i had except the Raya outing with the donuts clan last Saturday, many thanks to those who invited me along.

Just a piece of news i want to share on my blog, some of you knew about my left knee, the results are out. The doctor has confirm the diagnosis, it's left medial meniscal tear. I'm going for an operation on the 22nd Nov which is few weeks away, allright...that's all for now.

Will update soon...

2007-10-07T20:37:00.000+08:00

sorry for the late updates...i was terribly sick for the past 1 week, busy with events going on, and no time to go online.

I had a nice outing with some of the ndp cluster peeps last night, it's been 2 months i've not seen them, had nice dinner at clementi, eventually ain paid for the meal, thanks a lot babe...soon after we went to Geylang Serai since the ladies wanted to buy their stuffs, i was supposed to go to my grandfather's place, eventually my dad called and said he was asleep, so no point going to his place, continuing the journey...i tagged with them along till late, i had missed the last train back home, took a bus to city hall and transferred the NightRider service and slept all the way till i reached back home @ 2am...

2007-09-23T20:23:00.000+08:00

Just a short notice...

2007-09-15T09:53:00.000+08:00

it's been 2 weeks since i've last updated, as usual i'm busy with army life, it's gonna be almost a year, how time flies...last tuesday was my medical review at SGH, going for MRI scan on my left leg in october, what surprised me most is the doctor that i'm attached to, he brought up a conversation with me and asked whether i was involved in the NDP last august, the reaction on my face was *shocked*, he saw me at the preview...hmm, doctors can remember patients faces, cool huh...hahaha, so if you have any leg problems, go to SGH specialist clinic H and look for Dr. Andrew Tan.

Took half day off on friday afternoon to rest and join my friends in the evening for break fast, it's not common for me to do this, but i'm learning and experiencing different cultures. well i have nothing much to blog since i'm in camp doing duty for the day till sunday morning...adios amigos!!!

The weekend was great after booking out from camp last friday. There was this new recruits enlisted for BMT, i can say some of them can be really stupid when it comes to instructions given by my captain, a lady officer...I can't imagine why some guys will rather do things their own way instead of listening properly, there was this guy what he did was really nonsense. Instuctions were given to them to drink water from the cover cap which is a small amount, so he thought the cap must be his helmet, so he took out and pour the water into the helmet, i was looking on and i wondered what the hell he was doing, hahahaha...i dared not say anything, so my officer saw and shouted at him. "hey recruit!!!...what the f*** are you doing? Put back the helmet on your head with the water on it and drop 50" i can't imagined the way she handled our guys, although she's strict but friendly.

Well yesterday i got plans with most of my friends but some of them backout last minute, met up with nazri to visit the Comex at Suntec City to view some gadgets and stuffs, eventually i was supposed to meet ain and eqin for window shopping, ain smsed me said that something cropped up, so in the end we met up 2 of our buddies in orchard for dinner, slacked and chatted all the way till night until it was time to go home, i reached home and happened to saw my cuzzies, didn't expect them to be present, so we watched the football match between my favourite Red Devils against newly promoted Sunderland, and ordered Mcdonalds for supper, talk throughout the night till 4am and went to sleep.

sorry for the long delay to update my blog, thanks to Naqiah who reminded me, well...to start off, NDP 2007 has left many memories for me which has come to an end, i will miss my cluster D, last saturday was the Bay Ambassadors Appreciation Dinner which was awesome!! before that i was supposed to meet them 5pm at tampines bus interchange and i was late, when i reached there...i was the first one to arrive, followed by rasyid and the gorgeous ladies Ain and Zie. Our cluster put up a singing performance Here Without You by 3 Doors Down which featured Rasyid, Eqin, Ain and Arul who played the guitar...i can proudly say they put up a good show despite some mistakes...well done guys!!! the next was the mentors who did a show for us which made us bring back memories when we first came, i saw tears flowed down from faces, including myself...i've known some of them for 3 years and i couldn't hardly part ways...at last before we departed, took loads of photos with them to end with a bang and eventually ended up having drinks at Eastpoint Starbucks till late night...

To the guys and girls whom i've known, you will be cherished forever!!!

The photos are dedicated to you...

Love is a gift from god
It is meant to be shared
Among human and all living things that deserves Love

Love is indeed a wonderful thing
It can make families more meaningful
And lovers more loving

But Love is not always wonderful
Sometimes love hurts
It has driven many people to their deaths like Romeo and Juliet

Love is still breaking
Love has made some people
Not to love anyone and make them selfish people
Love is sometimes evil..........

2007-08-01T20:05:00.000+08:00

too busy to update my blog, i just don't have the mood to type...here's what happened at the NDP Preview, the audience just simply sucks...interaction was way down. Just what's happening to our Singaporeans?? Are they here just for the fun packs or to enjoy the parade?? If not...give the tickets to those wants to enjoy the fun, serious shits...I still don't get the answer, can someone explain it to me please?

The only fun i had was to get along with my cluster peeps and the grand finale, which we got to dance on the platform...that was the best moment. Seriously I'm gonna miss the fun when NDP ends, it's making my heart bleed, can't bear to part with the people i love...in my 4 yrs of experience as a motivator, this year is best cluster I've ever come across...full of energetic, funky and nice people around.

This could be my last time i'm involved in the NDP, i might never know what will happen next year, will i still be active, move on to another organisation or SAF might come looking for me if I were to represent my country.

No matter what the outcome is, i will not forget the memories i had so much fun being as a motivator...never in my life i had so much friends that came from NDP, i don't want to mention who they are, but eventually they will come know about it, that's all for now.

Are rich children always happier than those who come from poorer families?

Contrary to popular belief, I feel that rich children are not always happier than poorer children. Though the former may seem to have everything, one thing they may not have is love.

Most of the time in television, in movies or storybooks, rich children are depicted as individuals who enjoy the privilege of owning the lastest games, having an impressive waredrobe and living in a tastefully designed house overlooking some fantastic view. Usually, we stop to think and question ourselves: why can't I live like that too? Sadly, we waste our time demoralizing ourselves by thinking that the rich children have it all and we do not.

However, we often fail to see that rich children do not live perfect lives. Nothing in life is fair - you may have one thing but you cannot have the other to balance the scale. In this case, I'm talking about the rich children who may have a bank account that is always brimming with gold coins and parents who are so engrossed in making money or lavishing the wealth at a prestigious country club. These are the "poor little rich kids". The parents often forget that they have a child sitting idle at home, waiting for someone to love them. Without their parents' supervision, it's not surprising that they do as they please. In singapore, most of these "poor little rich kids" would probably comfort themselves by splurging on designer labels or spend the night at a discotheque dancing themselves silly until closing time. In this way, they are able to forget their parents' lack of concern for them. They are also liable to fall prey into the clutches of undesirable company, which presumably fill up the empty space in their heart. Eventually, they will learn to steal despite their wealth and worse, deal with drugs because of their wealth. Of course, not all rich children have it all - wealth and parents who love them dearly, by nuturing them into leaders of tomorrow.

Sometimes, rich children dominate their school as they are seen as the "more mature" children. Their social circle consists mainly of people who are only drawn to their bank account and the ability to boast that the "daughter of a millionaire is my best friend". In this way, their status in school is lifted to a higher level and other students would look up in awe to them. However rich children can also be the unfortunate victims of school bullies who extort money from them and make their lives miserable by spreading rumours or criticising them mercilessly. Not everyone aims to rub shoulders with rich children and would avoid them at all cost by shunning them in the school corridors, under the impression that rich children are snobbish.

On the other hand, I feel that poorer children learn more about life, as they are often exposed to the hard facts of life, and thus, they gain experience that rich children are deprived of. Poorer children often come from close-knit families. In these families, everyone helps around the house and Sundays are specially put aside for a simple but enjoyable family outing. These create a special bond among the family that is far superior to the wealth that the richer families have.

I think the best luxury anyone can ever have is love. At least, being in a less well off family, everyone's presence is appreciated and everyone lives a worthwhile life by saving up for what they want. Imagine being left alone in a big, lonely house all day long like those "poor little rich kids" - how terrible it must be! Being neglected and unloved by your parents is probably the worst feeling in the world. This feeling leads to hatred and resentment that will consume your heart, making you a bitter person.

So now, I can safely conclude that poorer children live more worthwhile and happier lives than rich children do. After all, what matters most is to be rich with a loving family and never-ending circle of friends.

oh man, week after week just pass in a flash and NDP is just simply amazing, every saturday is the day i always look forward to meeting my peeps and mentors, i can't help this feeling that it's going to end soon, to be exact...2 weeks left before the parade on 9 August 2007. NE Show 2 was simply awesome, the kids were in a high mood and interactive as well. So does my Cluster D, guys u were simply great, from total strangers, we became close friends. I felt so honourable to called you my best friends, i'm loss for words...the time spent with them was bonded sucessfully.

Went to lyra's workplace since zie and rashidi was there, waited for her to knocked off from work and headed for dinner, lyra dearest...thanks for the starbucks treat!!!

took the last train back home, it was still packed like sardines and i wasn't feeling too well, my body was giving me all sorts of pain like hell and i almost blackout, luckily it didn't happened. reached home and took my painkillers which subsidied...ok guys, i've nothing much to say...that's all for the weekend!!

2007-07-18T21:37:00.000+08:00

I've really got to enjoy the 3 days and 2 nights chalet organised by my officer LTA Danny Ong, it's awesome even though i did not stayed overnight, the 1st day, had bowling treat at SAFRA Tampines, played 2 games each...my group lost, back to our chalet to have our BBQ gathering. we had less food since we are going to have it again the next day, most of us had bonding since many of us are from different departments, it was great night...

The next day i woke up early to meet my madam around 7am as she wanted to pass me the breakfast she cooked for us due to a meeting she got attend back in camp, took a bus straight to downtown east, went to the chalet...knocked on the door, there was no respond...so i called them, still no answer, so i guessed they are still sleeping. so off i went to Burger King to eat my breakfast, 2 hours later...they called me just to say they had just woken up. then i proceed back to the room, looked at their sleepy faces...hahaha, gave them their breakfast while i watched ghost train which my friend borrowed it to me. soon after i decided to go swimming with my lady sergeant as she got no one to accompany with, and eventually did sun tanning for 3 hours. night came and we are prepared for another round of BBQ, but this time we were force to play games, any mistakes...we are given chicken wings and water, no one escaped from it...i was forced to eat 10 wings and 30 cups of water, bloody hell...my stomach was damn full!!! once it was over, there's was a birthday surprise for our sergeant as she's the only girl in our department, happy 22nd birthday!!! still i was forced to eat a slice of cake...it was already 11.30pm and i went off to take the last bus home...tired and happy!!

2007-07-15T23:05:00.000+08:00

oh yea, back to blogging, i know some of u guys wondered where i was for 1 week, i was at tekong for a major exercise, i guess there's nothing much to talk about my NS life. Ok...yesterday was my favourite day, saturday means NDP, got to spend time with my peeps and the mentors, and something unexpected happened. The fact is i lost my wallet, oh damn...was desperately finding it and nowhere to be found, tried asking others, eventually searched for it, no hope...so i prayed for it to return safely. thanks to yiwei, ken lembek and faris for lending me the money to go back home, thank you guys...i owe u a treat!!!

Anyway i've enjoyed the NE Show 1 with the P5 kids, overall they are the best audience every year in NDP, got to mingle, chat with them and gave out balloons. it was a short meeting with them but still i enjoyed myself to the max even though my left knee is still niggling with injury, it can't get any better.

When i got home, one of the SAF personnel called me saying that they found my wallet, oh yea...my prayers had been answered, i was overjoyed...wahahaha!!!

Earlier on...i met up with nazri, we planned to go out since he's bored at home, collected my wallet, and met up with alif and fizah. went for early dinner at marina square, most of us had ayam penyet...and i happened to saw Juaini and her boyfriend, i just simply walk off without saying hello...sorry juaini, off i went shopping and surveying for stuffs, ended up at starbucks for coffee, chatted about the old times in secondary school, missed the fun we had those days.

2007-07-07T10:15:00.000+08:00

sorry for the late updates, it was a busy week in camp, outfield exercise going on for 2 days non stop...it's going to be a busy month for me, there are more to come...

Went to watch Transformers with my cousins last night, it was a last minute plan...overall the movie's action packed with some comedy, worth the money watching it, will update more when i'm free...

2007-06-26T12:21:00.000+08:00

yesterday i had great time with naz and zie...it was supposed to be a group outing but some of them couldn't make it. Somehow i feel that going out in a small group is much better. We went to watch Fantastic 4, turns out to be a great movie...soon after we just walk around to see some stuffs, had early dinner at far east plaza...chatted topics which came across our mind, took a bus and headed to vivocity to meet my cluster members, i can say it's a headache to meet them at different places, ken lembek eventually got lost and ended up at burger king, naqiah and gang was around the vicinity but ended up being with ain. The more i walk, it hurts...making my leg worse...hope it's getting better. Anyway we went to the hawker centre to meet up with the rest...had their dinner and hang around vivo for awhile and went back home, while on the train...i saw my ex girlfriend with her guy, she saw and knew it was me, she smiled at me...in returned i did the same. i miss her badly, she's the type of girl whom every mother wants.

ps: i know it was a harsh decision that you had to leave me. Deep in your heart i know you still have feelings for me, no matter what happens i will be there for u...

2007-06-24T10:58:00.000+08:00

I'm so tired during the weekends, had duty on friday night till saturday morning,...reached home and slept for 4 hours, after which i had to go for the NDP 1st combined rehearsal, overall i got to see what's going to happen on the actual day itself. As memories flashed back...the members whom i used to hang out with, one of them smsed me. This is what she replied "ken...just wanna ask u that we are terribly sorry for what we had done to u, i know u can't bear the pain that we hurt u so much...we had been deceived by him, now we trust u more, we realised our mistakes...will u please forgive us?" Eventually i never replied her back. After so much thinking, should i still stick with them or not? but i couldn't care less about them, the pain is still so much to bear...although i was with my ndp cluster members, the smile and happiness that i've shown on my face was indeed fake.

guys, i need those photos we took on that day...

Love hurts, love scars
Love wounds, and marks,
Any heart, not tough,
Or strong, enough
To take a lot of pain,
Take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

I'm young, I know,
But even so
I know a thing, or two
I learned, from you
I really learned a lot,
Really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when its hot
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
Theyre not foolin me

I know it isnt true,
I know it isnt true
Love is just a lie,
Made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh,ooh love hurts
Ooh,ooh love hurts

I know it isnt true,
I know it isnt true
Love is just a lie,
Made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts
Ooh ooh love hurts
Ooh ooh...

2007-06-16T23:38:00.000+08:00

oh yea, found a nice skin...

saturday is here again...i can't believe time pass so fast like a bullet train, well had ndp training as usual, finally got to learn dance today...the steps was rather easy, once ndp ended...myself, ken lembek, juaini, wany, fana, and bainah went for lunch, most of us were eating at different fast food outlets...hahaha, so we met up again later, went to play arcade...seriously we got no ideas to plan and nothing better to do...just slacking around to pass time, don't know where to head next...so my buddy nazri smsed me, asking me where i am and whether he wants to join me for shopping, i can't refused him since he tried to ask the others out, but were unavailable, so continuing the journey back to city hall mrt...some had planned to go home, after awhile naz came...intro him to my ndp members...chit-chat for awhile, the rest left while me and naz went to town and survey for stuffs...eventually we ended up at mustafa centre, bought an ipod for himself, took a long walk to tekka centre for dinner and headed back home by bus...

i'm so guilty!!!

2007-06-10T21:42:00.000+08:00

lazy to blog last night since i came home very late from my cousin's place, i felt guilty for the things which i had really forgotten, i'm so sorry mummy, i didn't know that last friday was her birthday, once again Happy Birthday to Mummy!!! haiz, i forgot to buy a present for her...as u can see, i'm so busy with my NS and NDP commitments. i don't even get to see her everyday as she's working...i might want to quit NDP so that i can spend more time with my mummy...seriously, but she understands that i love to volunteer a lot...i would like to say thank you for your kind understanding and patience...

yesterday morning, left the house early to meet izan at khatib station since she's on the way from yew tee, we chatted non stop all the way to city hall, saw peggy, kok yong and azhari, waited for the rest to came, still waiting for that ken lembek, eventually he came late...made our way to the esplanade to meet hau teng, marked our attendance and went to the floating platform, the weather was so hot...we were assigned to our location, after being there for an hour, the performers got to try out their new costumes, i can say it's one of the worst this year...it looks like chicken outfit...hahaha, luckily i'm just a motivator...from there we went to marina for lunch, had KFC...play bowling, did window shopping, later on...some went home while we continued the journey to pasir ris by bus, it was ain's friend BBQ, she bought some stuffs to bring there, we headed to pasir ris park, we walk and totally got lost, somehow it was supposed to be the other direction...haha, found the place...had drinks, barbecued chicken wings, sausages and crab meat, so it was time for me to leave for my cousin's place, suddenly josco came since he's living nearby, chatted with him for awhile and went off...reached my cousin's place, had dinner and celebrated my mum's belated birthday...that's how i forgot my mum's birthday...ok it's time for me to end my words here, back to camp once again...arrrggghhh!!!

2007-06-08T22:16:00.000+08:00

home at last after another week spent in camp...hehehe, to be honest, something really went wrong in my unit, it's a long story, here it goes...usually i'm not the type of person who break the rules to leave camp without signing in or out by writing the log book, that's considered AWOL, the truth is some of the guys dare to do it and this is not the first time...i had witnessed it before and i don't wish to tell my officer, why should i bother where they go, it's not my business to know...so wednesday night we had a roll call by our battery sergeant major, oh man...what luck, some of the guys were not present and he asked us where's the rest, no one answered...so he called our names and marked us present, the rest missing were not spared, the next morning they were called up and got punished for their misdeeds, the details are as follows: 21 extra duties plus 4 weekend confinement, i can't believe it that he will give it to that extent...now they know what's it like suffer...

today at 12 noon, got half day off...book out from camp and went home, proceed to SGH...before visiting my cuzzie in the hospital, had my physiotherapy for my left leg, i was in pain...cannot tahan anymore already...hahaha, the therapist got an ice bag to let it heal for 15 mins...oh man, it was hell and freezing cold, my leg cannot take it, move here and there...hahaha, at last it was over...then met my cuzzie in the ward, i can't help but laughing at her so much, she was pissed off with me...hehehe, the truth is she had a bad fall at home and fractured her leg...so all the best for her recovery...tml's NDP training will be held at the floating platform for the first time...gonna be interesting to see what it's like to be held by the riverside...can't wait for tomorrow!!

2007-06-01T21:18:00.000+08:00

yesterday was a public holiday and my motive was to slack at home, hehehe...but i had an outing with ken lembek, ju, naq shorty and wany. met them at bedok interchange, took a bus and headed to ECP lagoon to have lunch, at the same time we chatted, laughed and poked fun at others...hahaha, then we decided to digest our stomach, so we took a slow walk, chill and reached our destination, initially we wanted to go cycling, but the place was full of bikers and skaters, so we ended up playing bowling, hehehe i won...soon after we make our way to the seaside, we played truth or dare...it was boring la, stopped halfway, we chatted and made lame jokes, furthermore we had some drinks at McCafe, finally everyone departed from the bus stop and went home, reached back at 11.30pm, the entire day spent with them was worth it...

2007-05-26T23:54:00.000+08:00

got up quite early at 7am today...i didn't slept well due to the sentry duty on thursday night till friday morning, bloody hell...i'm unfit for duties officially till end of july and these people can still put my name on the duty roster...i don't give a damn shit about it, want to complain to my officer about this matter soon. anyway i left home for ndp training, met Ken Neo for breakfast, followed by Wany, Ju, Fana, Bainah, Eqin, still as usual...sing songs, alamak...looks like NDP Idol, wahaha...the last event for the day, we played game called dog and bone...so funny, like small kids. At last headed down to century square, had lunch at food culture, share stories and lame jokes...from there we proceeded to tampines mall open plaza to slack big time, thinking of where to go next, everyone had no ideas...so we decided to go back home.

I met up my friends at dhoby ghaut at 5.30pm, earlier on they can't get the movie tickets for evening show as it's sold out...decided to have dinner at newton hawker centre, glad to see the placed renovated, with more crowd this time and lots of foreigners, ordered drinks and seafood...tuck in for makan feast, the food was simply delicious...talk all the way till late and make our way home, thought of going straight to bed, but i went online...ok guys, i'm already lembek, need to sleep...

busy week...

2007-05-25T22:51:00.000+08:00

the week spent in camp was rather good, everyone got surprised to see me back...wahahaha, in fact they asked me to extend my MC, but i choose rather not because i don't want to abuse my MC if i go out and get caught, there's nothing to do at home except watching tv, dvds or surf net...can really die doing that everyday. while in camp...a lot of work has to be done, my job was to take down the quantity of stocks, clean up the stores, indent food ration for my unit, upcoming LRI(Logistics Readiness Inspection) and my guard sentry duty. So super busy that i forgot my breaks, lunch and dinner for the past few days...even my ma'am had to remind me...wahaha, towards the end of the week, everything was completed before i booked out and went home, can't wait for NDP tomorrow morning, i'm off to bed...

Met up with my bro at orchard to hang out for a few hours, just walk around to see some nice clothes, i had already planned to buy something for myself but it was not to be, because my mum called me, urgently needed 100 bucks for expenses...that really pissed me off and lost my mood for the day, i've got no choice...had dinner at lucky plaza, tried a new dish called chicken & chips, so tempting...managed to empty the plate...hahaha, it's really cool to be with ken, but he talks a lot and i wasn't listening to him...sorry bro, chat with u more next time ya, ok adios amigos...

Great Weekend!

2007-05-12T23:34:00.000+08:00

woohoo...what a great weekend it was, firstly on friday morning, took a cab and went to camp, proceeded to the medical centre, saw the doctor and requested him to extend my MC for another week or so, but he refused, so i've got no choice but to head down to SGH tomorrow and extend it.

That afternoon, i met Kenneth Neo at HarbourFront mrt, one of my bro in this year's NDP, same cluster. We headed to GV vivocity to watch Spider-Man 3 as we had planned few days ago. Overall the movie was entertaining, story plot was a bit confused, my rating of 7/10, from there we had dinner at mac, talk about topics that interest us, ate ice cream on the way to the bus stop, parted ways when the buses came.

This morning i went for NDP training at ITE simei, had breakfast with my bro Ken, make our way up to the multi-purpose hall. It was still the same thing as usual, playing games, singing local songs, celebrated our members birthday with a cake, continue to finish our cluster banner. At last we headed to century square for lunch, thinking where to go next...myself, Kenneth Neo, Ain, Zie, Rasyid decided to go suntec and marina square to shop around, survey for stuffs, made lame jokes, eventually ain bought some stuffs for herself. Soon our legs began to feel tired, we decided to go Starbucks @ Marina, but found out that it was not operated for business yet, so headed down to the cafe at esplanade library, ordered drinks and snacks, came up with topics to chat, laugh all the way. It was already evening, took photos, make a trip down to city hall mrt station since one of zie, ain's friend would be joining us, she came, they introduced us to her, but i forgot her name, hehe...nevermind, had dinner at Long John's, and headed back home. Guys, thanks for the quality time well spent...
